Hi
I really do hope that I will find some help with my problem on this site. In April 2017 I received a letter from Britannia Parking concerning “failure to make a valid payment” at one of the car parks they operate in the south west I immediately wrote to them , heading my letter “ for information only” confirming that I had visited that site ( I didn’t say who was with me or who was driving the vehicle concerned ); on the stated day; I advised them of the approximate time of arrival and departure and finally provided them with a copy of the debit card transaction showing that 6 hours of parking had been purchased (more than I had parked for). I was even able to tell them which machine had been used for the transaction. I finished my letter with the following “… please advise me of what went wrong. Once I have all the information, I will decide whether or no to appeal your notice.” The response from Britannia Parking started with “Thank you for your appeal received on xx April 2017” The letter then went on to give the cause for PCN – First two letters of registration number were entered incorrectly (they were the first two letters from my wife’s car reg). They did offer a much reduced amount if paid within 14 days. They then confirmed that I had reached the end of their internal appeals procedure and they provided me with a POPLA reference number. I did not appeal to POPLA AS I had not, as far as I was concerned, appealed to Britannia I have had various letters from DRP and Zenith for various amounts from £100 to £145 and most recently a LETTER OF CLAIM from bwlegal for £145 ( £85 + additional costs of £60) advising that they have been instructed by Britannia to commence legal action if payment is made by 1st February. I did email bwlegal suggesting that they ask their client why in 2017 Britannia declined my appeal BEFORE it was made. I’m not expecting a reply. Any advice would be most welcome.

I may have missed but why was the SAR sent to BW? They usually dont know anything. A SAR to teh PPC will uncover everythign you need, usuaully.
The next step is to file an N180 directions questionnairre with the court. You can just down load your own copy of this, fiolll it out and send to court AND to the claimant. Otherwise any hearing will be months away. Guidance on completing the N180 is everywhere. |
